After achieving a sequence of accomplishments in 2020, Indian Institute of Management, Sambalpur, one of the most promising and dynamic management institutions among the new generation IIMs of the country, is all set to take another giant leap with the advent of the new year.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi today laid the foundation stone of the permanent campus of IIM Sambalpur Sambalpur in Odisha. "This decade will be devoted to the development of new Multinational corporations (MNCs) in India. Today's startups are tomorrow's MNCs. These are largely growing in tier 2 and tier 3 cities. These start-ups need able managers and those passing out of these institutions will lead the way. It is our responsibility to get a global recognition for 'brand India'. Those who will be a part of this institution need to encourage development and focus on inclusivity of all," PM Modi said.

Earlier, PM Modi appeared in a  Twitter handle saying, "At 11 AM tomorrow, 2nd January, will lay the foundation stone for the permanent campus of IIM-Sambalpur. Would especially call upon my student friends and those in the world of start-ups to join the programme. India is proud of the rich contributions of IIMs to national progress.". 

Odisha governor Ganeshi Lal and state chief minister Naveen Patnaik, Union ministers Ramesh Pokhriyal 'Nishank', Dharmendra Pradhan and Pratap Chandra Sarangi were also present on the occasion.
